Botox

Do you think people would still get Botox injections if they knew it really came from one of the most deadliest forms of bacteria??

Yep I am back in school this week--Microbiology doesn't it sound like fun??

Shipshewana

Yesterday my mom and I went to shipshewana to get our flowers and other things for our landscaping. I wish I would have taken my camera with us so you could have seen how full the car was by the end of the day!! We had two trees-Korean dwarf lilac and a Japanese red maple-, 3 bird's nest spruce, 4 flats of flowers, a hanging basked, an azalea, trumpet vine, honeysuckle vine and pepper plants!! I sent picture text to my dad and Jeremy that said keep on working, not very nice I know :)

We also played with some Yorkie puppies, so CUTE!! I sent another picture text to Jeremy telling him I found a really good bargain. He's response: ha ha I don't think so but I love you........I tried!!

School's out!!

School is out for 3 weeks :) Yes I am taking 1 or 2 summer classes--crazy I know!!

So it is AMAZING how much can get done when you are not working on your online class or studying for the next Anatomy quiz or test and working full-time!! I had made a list of things that I wanted to get done by the time summer is over and is already cut in half :)

1. Paint inside of Kitchen and Patio doors--check
2. Hang new picture in dinning room--check
3. Get outlet and light switch covers for the ones that are missing(well the old ones were nasty)--check By the way don't turn the screw to tight because the covers can crack *oops I was just wanting all the screws to be turned the same way(can you say OCD)
4. Clean the House--has been started!!
5. Work on the backyard--has been started but has a long ways to go!!(see before pictures below)

and that was all done yesterday on my day off--again I say amazing!!

What is left??
1. Finish some of the red paint in Kitchen and Dinning Room--(touch up and I never did around the window--its less then a 1/2 inch space)
2. Paint the shed
3. Get vent cover for family room(not sure if there ever was one)

Before and after of yard

So these are mostly before pictures. The front has a lot more landscaping now but this just gives you a look at our crazy project--that would be called our home! I think that Jeremy's parents that we were nuts and mine saw a diamond in the rough! I wish I would have taken before of the inside but I didn't--I think Jeremy's parents did but I don't know if they still have them--oh well!! After we first removed our massive bushes in the front it was funny to watch people pass right by our house because they didn't recognize it :)
*Also suggestions of colors to paint the shed would be apperciated...Sorry no contest poor college student that wouldn't remember to mail out a prize :) Don't worry the flea house....I mean dog house is gone!!

doorbell+8:45am=not good

So I have today off since I have my final and who did my husband forget to tell me was coming this morning at 8:45---Gerber's to spray the lawn.

8:45am--hear the doorbell..normally I ignore it because if I don't' know someone is coming then mostly likely its some sort of solicitor. BUT I think man its early for that and then see a lawn mower spraying the front lawn. I think crap!! I haven't brushed my teeth, my hair is crazy, still in my PJ's and Roxy is out back. What to do first?? Run up stairs put a more appropriate shirt on. Run back down stairs open the door slightly-quickly grab the bill and say I will get Roxy back in quickly. I was worried about getting her back in because all morning she would come to the door and then run as soon as I opened--she thinks its a fun game, I think its super annoying!! AND what kind of watch dog doesn't bark at strangers but barks when I come home or Jeremy comes home!!
8:50am--call the husband and say thanks for telling me the lawn people were coming this morning so I could have looked a little better!!

*now normally I go to work on Tuesdays so I am not that upset with Jeremy just more in embarrassed because I looked horrible--trust me my hair gets BIG through the night!!
